This paper describes a measurement of the W boson transverse momentum distribution using ATLAS pp collision data from the 2010 run of the LHC at ffiffiffi s p ¼ 7 TeV , corresponding to an integrated luminosity of about 31 pb (cid:1) 1 . Events form both W ! e(cid:1) and W ! (cid:2)(cid:1) are used, and the transverse momentum of the W candidates is measured through the energy deposition in the calorimeter from the recoil of the W . The resulting distributions are unfolded to obtain the normalized differential cross sections as a function of the W boson transverse momentum. We present results for p WT < 300 GeV in the electron and muon channels as well as for their combination, and compare the combined results to the predictions of perturbative QCD and a selection of event generators.
